-3. SURVEY OPERATIONS

3.1 Operations Base

Survey operations were based out ofthe Wawa Municiple Airport located approximately 20 kilometres southwest of the survey area. Permission was obtained to operate the helicopter, park and to locate and operate the GPS base station from the airport at Wawa.

Quality Control and preliminary data processing was undertaken remotely by McPhar from the Newmarket, Ontario office.

3.2 Survey Conditions

Weather conditions during the survey were good with clear skies and little cloud cover. Generally the temperature was in the mid 20°' s Celsius.

Sunspot activity, and hence diurnal geomagnetic activity, was quiet during the entire data acquisition period. No data were lost due to the geomagnetic activity.

3.3 Navigation

The nominal data acquisition speed was approximately 110 kilometres per hour. Scan rates for magnetic data acquisition was 0.1 second, and 1.0 second for the GPS navigation/positioning system. Therefore, a magnetic value was recorded approximately every 3.0 meters and a position fix each 30 meters along the flight track.

Navigation was assisted by a GPS receiver system that reports GPS co-ordinates as WGS-84 latitude and longitude and directs the pilot over the pre-programmed two-dimensional (2-D) survey grid. The x -y position of the aircraft as reported by the GPS system is recorded together with the terrain clearance as reported by the radar altimeter.

Vertical navigation along flight lines was established using the radar altimeter. The optimum terrain clearance during normal survey flying was 50 metres for the helicopter, 30 metres for the towed-bird magnetometer. However, due to rugged terrain in some areas, and the pilot's judgment of safe flying conditions in these areas, these terrain clearances were not possible 100% of the time.

The final vertical and horizontal survey positions were corrected in real time to a precision of approximately +/- 1.5 metre.

3.4 Field Processing & Quality Control

The survey data was transferred to portable magnetic media on a flight-by-flight basis, and then emailed to the McPhar data processing facility in Newmarket, Ontario. Data processing included reduction of the data to GEOSOFT GDB database format and inspection of the magnetometer data for adherence to contract specifications. Survey lines that exhibited excessive deviation after differential correction, or that were considered to be of inferior quality, were marked to be reflown.

No reflights were required.

4.2 The Survey Instrumentation

4.2.1 Survey System Overview

The instrumentation installed in the helicopter included:

• A Scintrex CS2 high-sensitivity Cesium magnetometer mounted in a towed-bird airfoil, 0.001 nT 110 Hz resolution

• A navigation system, comprising an Fugro 3000 OmniStar DGPS receiver and AGNA V GPS computer with pilot steering indicator (PSI)

• An T.H.E.M. Geophysics Data Acquisition System (DAS) • A Terra TRA-3000/TRI-30 Radar Altimeter

The processing and base stations comprised:

• A Magnetometer I GPS Base Station, comprising a PC-based DAS base station magnetometer and GPS system.

A complement of spare parts and test equipment were maintained at the survey site.

4.2.2 Airborne Magnetometer

A Scintrex CS2 cesium split-beam total-field magnetometer was employed installed in the kevlar airfoil. Sampling rate was ten ( 10) times per second with an in-flight sensitivity of 0.01 nT. Aerodynamic magnetometer noise was 0.25 nT or less. The sensitivity of the magnetometer is documented at 0.00 ] nT when operated at a sampling rate of OJ second.

The Scintrex CS2 magnetometer IS described In

Appendix 3. Figure 5: Scintrex CS2 cesium magnetometer

4.2.3 The Towed-Bird Airfoil and Tow-Cable

The towed-bird airfoil is essentially a hollow Kevlar tube, 3.0 meters long, with a bulbous nose into which the cesium magnetometer sensor is mounted in a 3D hand-alit:,'l1ed gimbal. The GPS antenna and TRA-3000 radar altimeter are installed elsewhere in the bird. Fins are used at the tail of the airfoil to stabilize the bird in flight.

The tow cable is constructed of coaxial cables complete with a strain member. The length of the tow cable is nominally 20 metres. The tow cable was attached to the helicopter by means of a weak link assembly. The on-board section of the tow cable consists of coaxial cable, the length customized to suit

4.2.4 The Base Station Magnetometer

The magnetometer base station used was comprised of a PC-based computer utilizing a Scintrex CS2 cesium magnetometer to monitor and record diurnal variations of the Earth ' s magnetic field. The base station magnetometer was set up at the Wawa Airport. Every effort was made to ensure that the magnetometer sensor was placed in a location with a low magnetic gradient and sited away from electric transmission lines, and moving ferrous o~iects, such as motor vehicles and aircraft, without ompromising safety and airport operations.

The base-station magnetometer, with digital recording, was operated continuously throughout the airborne data acquisition work with a sensitivity of 0.01 nT. The ground and airborne system clocks were synchronised using GPS time, to an accuracy of 1 second or better. The sample rate was once per second. A continuously updated profile plot of the base station values was presented on the base station screen. At the end of the day, the digital data was transferred from the base station's data-logger to the fieldwork station.

Specifications are included in Appendix 3.

4.2.5 Altimeter

A Terra TRA-3000/TRI-30 radar altimeter was used to record terrain clearance to an accuracy of about 1 ft (30 em), over a range of 12 metres to 762 metres. The antenna was mounted beneath the bubble of the helicopter cockpit. The recorded value of terrain clearance was adjusted to give bird height above ground. This was possible given the fixed tow cable length of 20 metres.

The altimeter was interfaced to the data acquisition system with an output repetition rate of 0.1 second, and digitally recorded.

The altimeter specifications are further described in Appendix 3.

4.2.6 The GPS Satellite Navigation System

An Fugro 3000 OmniStar DGPS receiver and AGNA V navigation computer with pilot steering indicator (PSI) provided in-flight real-time navigation control. A pilot steering indicator (PSI) installed on top of the cockpit dashboard, in front of the pilot provided steering and cross-track guidance to the pilot. The pilot was provided with GPS, and altimeter data to aid in the flying of the helicopter.

This navigation system yielded a real-time positional accuracy of better than ± 2 metre.

Survey co-ordinates were set-up prior to commencement of the survey, the information fed into the airborne navigation system. The co-ordinate system employed in the survey design and digital recording was WGS-84 latitude and longitude. The GPS positional data was recorded at one-second intervals and used with the base station data to calculate differentially corrected locations.

The GPS receiver is fully described in Appendix 3.

4.2.7 Data AcguisitionlRecording System

A PC-based T.H.E.M data acquisition system (DAS) was used to record the geophysical and navigation survey data on an internal hard disk drive. Data is displayed on an LCD screen as traces to allow the operator to monitor the integrity ofthe system. The DAS provides for the:

• System control and monitoring • Data acquisition recording • Real-time data processing • Navigation processing, and • Post flight data playback and analysis

All data collection routines, checking and verification, buffering, and recording are software controlled for maximum flexibility both during and after the survey flight.

5. INSTRUMENT CHECKS AND CALIBRATIONS

5.1 Airborne Magnetic System Tests and Calibrations

5.1.1 Magnetic Heading Effect

The magnetic heading effect was determined by flying a cloverleaf pattern oriented in the same direction as the survey lines and tie lines. Two passes in each direction were flown over a recognizable feature on the ground in order to obtain sufficient statistical information to estimate the heading error. The heading error was determined from a test completed on 12 June 2005.

5.1.2 Lag Tests

A Lag Test was performed prior to mobilizing for Wawa to ascertain the time difference between the magnetometer readings and the operation of the GPS System. The test was flown over an identifiable magnetic anomaly by flying the same line in opposite directions at survey altitude. The lag test results indicated that a shift lag of -0.5 seconds was present in the system.

5.2 Altimeter Calibration Checks

An altimeter test was performed prior to mobilizing to Wawa. The radar altimeter was calibrated by comparing the radar altitudes with a suitable reading from the GPS navigation system during a radar "stack" flown over the Gatineau, Quebec airport runway. The ellipsoidal height at this location on was determined by GPS. The procedure employed involved having the helicopter hover for 30 seconds at various altitudes above the ground (30,40,60,90, 122 and 185 metres) and recording the values of the radar altimeter, barometric altimeter and GPS altimeter which were then plotted and compared.

5.3 GPS Static Test

In addition to carefully selecting a magnetically suitable area for the positioning of the magnetometer base station, care was taken to ensure that the exact position of the GPS base station was determined. The base GPS system data was averaged over a period of time to calculate the location coordinates. The base station GPS had a maximum field-of-view at all times to the NA VSTAR satellites.

6. QC AND DATA PROCESSING

Daily quality control, initial processing and archiving of the data were completed ott-site at the base of operations at the Newmarket office of McPhar using Geosoft MONT AJ software and a notebook PC computer. All data were verified upon receipt, and checked against the operator' s fl ight logs.

The pre-processing or infield processing sequence included the follo\ving quality control measures:

a) Examination and checking of all incoming data to ensure completeness of data sets.

b) The production of preliminary flight path maps speed checks, terrain clearance checks.

c) Full profile quality control ofaB acquired traces for noise levels, data completeness, spike editing, and adherence to contract specifications.

Figure 7: Data Processing Flow Ghart

6.1 Flight Path Compilation

The flight path was derived from differentially corrected GPS positions using the real-time airborne GPS data. A position was calculated each 1.0 second (approx. each 30 meters along the flight path) to an accuracy ofbetler than +/- 1.5 meter. These position data were merged into magnetic and ancillary data in the Geosoft GOB database.

As part of the QAlQC process, the following GPS parameters were checked on a daily basis:

• Number of satellites under observation (average of 6, minimum of 4 allowed) • POOP (position dilution of precision; maximum value of 3 allowed) • Flight path deviation in X, Y and Z (maximum deviation in X and Y of 50% of line spacing

over a linear distance of 5000 metres)

If the above specifications were not met, a reflight was necessary.

All positional data was maintained in WGS 84 (World) coordinates.

6.2 Base Station Magnetic Data

The base station magnetometer data was edited, plotted and merged into the GDB database on a daily basis.

The QAlQC procedure to determine acceptable magnetic base station data involved:

• Despiking of the base station data resulting from cultural activities not associated with the performance of the survey.

• Determination of the maximwn noise of the observed total magnetic intensity (TMI; 1 nT maximwn allowable).

• Determination of the average 4th difference noise of the signal (maximum of 0.2 nT allowable) • Determination of the rate of diurnal change (maximwn gradient of 4 nT for a 5 minute chord).

6.3 Corrections to the Magnetic Data

The processing of the data involved the application of the following corrections:

,-. • Correction for diurnal variation using the digitally recorded ground base station magnetic values.

• Adjustment of the data for the time lag between the GPS position and the position of the magnetic sensor.

• Correction for the heading effect and • Network adjustment using the flight line and tie line information to level the survey data set.

The corrected data was then used to generate the Total Magnetic Intensity grid.

6.3.1 Additional Corrections Applied to Profile Data

After applying the above corrections to the profile data residual line-direction-related noise was removed through application of microlevelling. The micro levelling technique consists of applying directional and high pass filters to produce a grid containing noise-only in the line direction. In order to differentiate between the two of them, the grid is extracted to the profile databa')e, and an amplitude limit and a filter length are determined, so that the final error channel reflects only noise present on the grid without removing or changing geological signal. This error channel is then subtracted from the initial data channel in order to obtain the fmal microlevelled channel. The resulting grid is free of line direction noise.

6.3.2 Gridding

The corrected magnetic line data was interpolated between survey lines using a random point minimum curvature gridding algorithm to yield x-y grid values for a standard grid cell size of 1/5th of the line spacing.

6.3.3 Filter Derivatives

The Total Magnetic Intensity (TMI) data were subjected to:

• IGRF removal • Reduction-to-the-pole • Calculation of the First Vertical Derivative (1 VD) • Calculation of the Second Vertical Derivative (2VD) • Calculation of the Total Horizontal Derivative (TOTHDRV) • Calculation of the Analytic Signal

Colour/contour images were produced for all the above listed magnetic products.

All of these spatial filtering techniques were completed using the Oasis Montaj Magrnap and IGRF modules for filtering in the 2D FFT domain.

6.3.3.1 IGRF Removal

The International Geomagnetic Reference Field (IGRF) is a long-wavelength regional magnetic field calculated from permanent magnetic observatory data collected around the world. The IGRF is updated and determined by an international committee of geophysicists every 5 years. Secular variations in the Earth's magnetic field are incorporated into the determination of the IGRF.

Through the removal of the IGRF from the observed Total Magnetic Intensity (TMI), the resulting residual magnetic intensity allows for more valid modelling of individual near surface anomalies. Additionally, the data can be more easily incorporated into databases of magnetic data acquired in the past or to be acquired in the future.

6.3.3.2 Reduction-to-the-Pole

To compensate for the shift of the true anomaly position over the causative source, due to the magnetic inclination and declination, the magnetic data was recomputed so that magnetic anomalies will appear as they would if located at the north magnetic pole. The result of this operation is that in theory, the magnetic anomaly is located directly overtop of the causative source. The computation is referred to as "reduction-to-the-pole" (RTP). The reduction-to-the-pole is computed using a FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) operator.

The RTP not only shifts the anomalies to their correct position with respect to th(~ causative magnetic bodies, but assists in the direct correlation and comparison of magnetic anomalies, trends, structural axis, and discontinuities with mapped geologic surface expression.

Page 21: Final Report on a He'licopter-borne Magnetic Survey Wawa ... · He'licopter-borne Magnetic Survey Wawa Area, Ontario For • Dianor ... Final Report on 8 Helicopter-borne Magnetic

-The RTP was calculated using the following parameters for the survey area:

Geomagnetic Inclination: Geomagnetic Declination:

6.3.3.3 Calculation of the First Vertical Derivative (lVD)

Vertical derivatives compute the rate of change of the field as it drops off when measured vertically over the same point (upward continuation). Potential field data obeys Laplace's equation, which allows for the computation, through the FFT package, to take advantage of this symmetry and solve for the vertical or "z" component of the field. The First Vertical Derivative (l VD) has the effect of sharpening anomalies, which allows for better spatial location of source axes and boundaries

6.3.3.4 Calculation of the Second Vertical Derivative (2VD)

To enhance local anomalies and to outline the edges of anomalous bodies within the data, a Second Vertical Derivative (2VD) is computed. The 2VD is a powerful interpretive tool and that is used to assist in the delineation of causative bodies and to accurately locate changes in the magnetic field gradients. Better defmition of discontinuities and their relationship to geology can be gained from the use of this tool. A 2VD will show steep gradients over faults and positive closures over the ''up thrown" blocks.

6.3.3.5 Calculation ofthe Total Horizontal Derivative (TOTHDRV)

To highlight anomalous areas which may be the result of a magnetic source of limited strike length, a Total Horizontal Derivative (TOTHDRV) is computed. The TOTHDRV is a powerful interpretive tool that can accurately define the edges of magnetic features such a dykes and vertical cylindrical geologic units that have sharp, but limited in area, magnetic gradients and geometry. A TOTHDRV will indicate peak gradients along the edges of narrow dykes and a circular, donut shaped anomaly over vertical cylinder sources.

6.3.3.6 Calculation of the Analytic Signal

The analytic signal is the square root of the sum of the squares of the derivatives in the x, y, and z directions:

asig sqrt ( dx*dx + dy*dy + dz*dz)

where: asig is the Analytic Signal sqrt is the square root of dx is the horizontal gradient in the x direction dy is the horizontal gradient in the y direction dz is the vertical gradient in the z direction

The analytic signal is useful in locating the edges of magnetic source bodies, particularly where remanence and/or low magnetic latitude complicates interpretation.

7.3 Interpretation

The area covered by the airborne magnetic survey is geologically complex. Present are what geophysically appear to be magnetic dykes of the Matchewan and Nipissing dyke swarms in addition to an apparently folded Iron formation hosted in a somewhat homogeneous metasedimentary environment. The area is also punctuated with several apparently vertical, cylindrical pipe-like intrusives.

In order to provide a structural interpretation of the area flown, the following products were generated and used:

1. All gradient data (TOTHDRV, 1 VD, 2VD and Analytic Signal) have been calculated and analysed in an attempt to define structural controls on the geology and to identify possible kimberlite - like intrusive bodies.

2. Kimberlite -like intrusive identification has been attempted through the application of "Keating Correlation Coefficient" analysis.

3. Examination of the RTP and RTP IGRF Removed maps.

7.3.1 Keating Correlation Coefficient

An automated anomaly recognition technique developed primarily for and applied to the search for vertical cylindrical source geometries (i.e. kimberlite pipes), the Keating Correlation Coefficient, was applied to the RTP TMI IGRF Removed data. The technique computes the flIst-order regression between a vertical cylinder model anomaly and the gridded magnetic data. The technique is based upon the assumption that a vertical magnetic sylinder is a first approximation (geometric) of a kimberlite pipe. If the assumption is valid, then a clustering of solutions will be obtained around a common point. Magnetic bodies of irregular geometry may not be detected by this method.

Model anomalies were generated for the RTP TMI response of a cylinder of 100 metres radius, buried approximately 5 metres below surface. Solutions with an absolute correlation of greater than 75% were accepted and plotted. The results of the Keating Correlation Coefficient calculation are presented in plan map form as a separate map on a RTP TMI IGRF Removed base map.

Application of this procedure resulted in the identification of twelve (12) clusters of Keating Correlation Coefficient solutions.

7.4 Geophvsical Interpretation and Recommendations

The application of the above processes has resulted in the identification of twelve (12) areas worthy of further investigation from a diamond prospecting perspective. Of these twelve (12) areas, five (5) are in patented mining claims not controlled by the Joint Venture.

Of the remaining seven (7) anomalous clusters, two (2) are negative correlations and five (5) are positive correlations. A negative correlation is interpreted as being an indication of remanent magnetisation, the causative body being intruded during a period of magnetic field reversal. The

Page 24: Final Report on a He'licopter-borne Magnetic Survey Wawa ... · He'licopter-borne Magnetic Survey Wawa Area, Ontario For • Dianor ... Final Report on 8 Helicopter-borne Magnetic

positive correlations are indicative of normal magnetisation, the causative body being intruded during a period of the Earth's magnetic field being in a similar orientation to the present.

A brief discussion of the seven (7) anomalous targets with additional work recommendations is discussed in the following sections.

7.4.1 Claim 3002757

The Keating Correlation Coefficient (KCC) cluster in this claim is a negative correlation, corresponding to a local magnetic low on the TMI maps. The TOTHDRV map defines a donut shaped anomaly coincident with the KCC cluster. The vertical derivatives are less diagnostic in defining anomaly.

The target is located at 672750 mE, 5318800 mN in a stream flowing into Shook Lake. Suggested follow-up methods would include detailed geologic mapping, heavy mineral sampling and detailed ground magnetometer survey to verify the anomaly shape and location.

As the target is in an area of topographic gradient, overburden coverage may be minimal and the causative body may be exposed in the valley sides and/or streambed.

7.4.2 Claim 3002786

Located on a topographic high at 673200 mE, 5318900 mN, the anomaly is a series of positive KCC clustered solutions. Inspection of the TMI maps indicates that the cluster is on a. discrete positive magnetic feature that is teardrop in planimetric shape. The vertical derivatives exhibit coincident anomalies and the TOTHDRV defines a squarish, donut shaped anomaly, suggesting a discrete intrusive body.

7.4.2 Claim 3002755

Straddling the Township boundary between Lastheels and McMurray Townships; there are two KCC anomalies in this claim. The KCC anomalies consist of one positive and one negative correlation cluster.

The negative KCC cluster is located in relatively flat ground at 673650 mE, 5320250 mN. The other derivative products indicate a less well defined anomaly in this area.

The positive KCC cluster is located in a stream flowing into Shook Lake from a smaller lake/pond. The cluster is located at 674250 mE, 5320300 mN.

7.4.3 Claim 1243449

Located in the south central half of Claim 1243449 in close proximity to a small river, this positive KCC cluster is poorly defined on the other derivative magnetic products. The coordinates for the anomaly are 676000 mE, 5320000 mN.

Page 25: Final Report on a He'licopter-borne Magnetic Survey Wawa ... · He'licopter-borne Magnetic Survey Wawa Area, Ontario For • Dianor ... Final Report on 8 Helicopter-borne Magnetic

,- 7.4.4 Claim 1243372

Located to the northeast of Roddy Lake at 675750 mE, 5319300 mN, this anomaly is potentially located at the intersection of a NE striking Nipissing dyke and a NNW trending Matchewan dyke.

A discrete anomaly is observed on all derivatives, suggesting that this anomaly, when intruded, may have significantly altered the surrounding rock.

7.4.5 Claim 3015604

Similar to the previous target, this anomaly appears to occupy a position of intersection between a NNW striking dyke and a NNE striking dyke. The KCC solutions are positive and the anomaly is well defined on the TOTHDRV map.

The anomaly is located at 674950 mE, 5318250 mN in a potentially swampy low topographic area.

7.5 Conclusions

The seven (7) KCC anomalous clusters should be followed up with investigation on the ground prior to drilling. Detailed geologic mapping is required to better evaluate the source of the magnetic anomalies. Grab samples should be obtained and analysed for magnetic properties in addition to mineral content.

Geochemical sampling and/or correlation with geochemical sampling results would prove to be invaluable in further evaluating the diamond potential of the KCC clusters. As some of the targets may be located in areas of "wet" overburden (swamps) geologic mapping and geochemical sampling may be of limited value. In these cases, further follow-up with ground geophysical surveys including but not restricted to ground magnetometer surveying may be warranted.

Heavy mineral sampling of the streams and drainage systems in which KCC clusters have been found may provide additional information prior to drilling and indicate the presence of other possible non-magnetic sources in the area.

OmniSTAR 3000LS SERIES DGPS RECEIVER PRODUCT FAMILY

Technical Data

The 3000L Series OGPS receivers are the product of years of research and development and represent the latest technology and one of the highest levels of integration yet be seen in Satellite DGPS receivers.

Fugro transmits differential GPS correction data to user mobile receiver units via L-band satellites worldwide. The correction data is generated by a network of ground (reference) stations located worldwide and monitored around the dock by three regional control centres. The nannal operating environments for the receivers is vessel mounting for precise navigation.

The 3000l series incorporates high quality RF components and circuitry which ensures the besl possible performance in fringe area reception and/or noisy reception areas where good signal to noise performance means the difference between the receiver "rocking on" to the signal or failing to receive.

The 3000l series also incorporates a powerfiJl DSP (digital signal proceSSing computer), and one of the latest technology RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computing) embedded processors for receiver control and general purpose processing. The embedded processor operates in real time continuously checking the dais integrtty, the receiver system health and the computed solution integrity and immediately notifies any out of limits or other alarm condition to the operator. A CAN bus interface is available for access to the processor for machine control and dais transfer functions under special software controls. The 3000L Series uses Forward Error Correction Techniques and Fugro proprielsry data compression and enayption algorithms to ensure data integrity security and efficiency. These systems are software implemented so that the receiver remains a flexible tool for a wide variety of applications which may require specialised software implementations to suit different users needs.

3000LRS A full function receiver system inside a field case with a display and push button operator interface, Antenna input, Power & Dais inputs & outputs,

3000LR8S A full function receiver system inside a field case with a display and push button operator interface, Antenna input, Power and Data inputs and outputs. This unit is equipped with special enhanced differential solution software and also incorporates an intemal 8 channel GPSengine.
